This must be Annoying Co-Worker Week.
Flashback to yesterday: I'm on hold with a mortgage company trying to find out if a client's windstorm premium has been mailed since the policy expires next week; co-worker is at lunch. Her phone rings. Since she is at lunch, she put the phone on Do Not Disturb, sending all calls directly to voice mail.
They hang up after the first ring. Number pops up again immediately. And again. And again. And AGAIN! Over and over; ring, hang up, ring....
I'm listening to Kenny G on the hold music getting worried. Has someone been in a wreck? A death in the family? No one else is in a nearby office to come answer her phone and see what the hell is going on - do I hang up on the rep after I navigated through 7 minutes of voice mail hell to get to a human?
Finally the calls cease. CW returns, and I tell her about the calls, reciting what I remembered of the number.
"Oh, yeah - it was my kids. They're at my mom's and they're bored. They called my cell."
Yeah, after ding-donging you here about 20 times and scaring the crap outta me!
